Intermodulation distortion does some interesting things to perception.
There's a G#/Ab on the bass, it then goes to an F#/Gb.
The guitar is so distorted that it's easy to imagine you're hearing other notes in the overtones. The ironic part is that to mimick that sound you need really bad and nasty solid state distortion - the sound of a guitar direct into a mixing board.
Which makes it one of the harder sounds to emulate live. It sounds "wrong" to just do power chords on the root, but there's no alternative. Unless someone has an EMI REDD console they can loan me...?
